Zimmer Surgical Inc. is recalling 257 A.T.S. 5000TS and 3200TS Tourniquet Systems because the device screen may freeze or stop responding to touch when set to certain non-English languages. This defect can cause surgical delays or extensions while medical staff locate a replacement device. The recall affects 206 units of the 5000TS model and 51 units of the 3200TS model.
A frozen or unresponsive interface prevents clinicians from adjusting tourniquet settings during a procedure, which can lead to surgical delays and prolonged anesthesia for the patient. While no injuries have been reported, these delays pose a risk to patient safety during critical surgical operations.
Model No. 60500010100; Multiple Lots/UDIs/Serials for A.T.S. 5000TS.
Model No. 60320010100; Multiple Lots/UDIs/Serials for A.T.S. 3200TS.
